How to Go Gray: Tips, Products & What No One Tells You


Listen Later

What if the scariest change you could make turned out to be the most freeing?

After nearly 30 years of dyeing her hair, Katie Emery made the decision at 50 to go gray cold turkey, and discovered it was about so much more than hair color. In this episode, the creator of Katie Goes Platinum shares her raw and honest journey, from the depression that sparked her decision to the surprising joy she found on the other side.

We talk:

  1. Why going gray became a catalyst for bigger life changes
  2. The emotional rollercoaster of transition (and why it's worth it)
  3. Savage comebacks for the haters ("Wow" is just the beginning)
  4. Products that actually work vs. total BS
  5. Different methods to go gray (cold turkey isn't your only option)
  6. Why 85-95% of women who go gray never go back
  7. The powerful mindset shift: "You're no longer chasing who you used to be, but enjoying who you are now"

Whether you're gray-curious, mid-transition, or just here for the life wisdom, this one's for you.
